Keyboard bike-shedding is of a very special flavor. Seriously, I've been programming/typing for decades and I went through numerous layouts due to the specific hardware preferences of my employer, while keeping my personal hardware Apple. I just switched and adapted reasonably fast to do my job. I type very fast. I mean fast enough that an increase in speed will have a negligible increase in my productivity. I never had nowhere near the amount of annoyance or desire to over-optimize a particular layout for a particular type of job. The only thing which comes close is the disappearance of the escape key on macbooks, but with the haptic feedback daemon I went over that one. Do most people find value in this? I get that we're craftspeople and the keyboard is one of the most important tools yadda yadda input bla bla rubber meet the road. But do we actually get that much value to warrant so much interest?
